Yes but who changed the not-working onboard camer for a working wide angled camera after the crash?

Looks more like the GoPro of a marshall as Andreas suggested

I hope you brought the time machine with you then.

Interesting snippet regarding Hamilton's poor start:
Mercedes have discovered Hamilton's poor start in Austria was caused by a problem within the engine, which has now been identified and a fix put in place.
Hamilton said: "After the last race, Nico simulated what happened for me at the start and found a serious issue that could have affected us this weekend. That has now been rectified and improved."
Mercedes executive director technical Paddy Lowe said Hamilton's engine was not responding to him moving the throttle. Rosberg stalled the car when he was given the same issue in the test.
"We actually found Lewis had done an incredible job to manage it as well as he did," Lowe said. "Things could have been a lot worse."

They changed the version for the third time and it took them two weeks? So that's how they test engines: "hey Nico we're not sure if it's a driver try this". Bweeee.. OK good news it's the engine, what a relief!

Written like a negotiated marketing spin, cracks in the chassis were real too and pushing the button in Brazil which Kovalainen replicated later but who am I to argue, fine. Just to be sure though I'll wait couple more weeks they might change their version again.
